Enhanced children’s ebooks by highly specialized types of publishers like this one under its parent company, zuuka, have a lot to offer young readers, aside from the obvious form of go-to quality entertainment on Mom or Dad’s iOS platform device. Emergent readers can improve their comprehension skills by utilizing the read-aloud feature or they can opt to read on their own. The illustrations and touch-screen adaptations support a major reading skill, cause and effect. Even more helpful from an educational standpoint, enhanced children’s ebooks often highlight the text as the narrator reads, helping young readers make the correlation between the spoken word, the written text, and the events in a story.
To celebrate the success of the Biscuit stories, whose print edition of this Birthday title have sold more than 16 million copies worldwide, iStoryTime provided GoodeReader with three codes to give away one copy each to three random winners.
